The CoC can have formation on parade ground, too. We don’t have the cool Cav Guidons.

Ohhhh Redleg.
I like your pictures of your Cav in parade formation. Because of you, yes you! Not only did I find the 2 companies without antennas, I found another 25 or so without antennas. I thought I had antennas on all my Aussie and CoC Abrams.
Thinking about attacking into Poland with EE forces. Dang!

Finally a little organization, Chris.

Great looking unit, Chris! It's addicting isn't it? You get a few pieces out and then then you get a few more and before you know it there is a parade on your table!

Redleg, it is I enjoy it. Certainly with gaming reduced in this environment.
Get to share and see some cool stuff by others, like you and your micro armor.

Gurobuvro, that you.

Here are some M60s that I painted probably over 20 years ago.

Lots of inspiring work in here as always!

Finally got some time to work on my own and finished the tank transporter to haul my Pz III (which also has its markings now.) Trying out a new backdrop until I get a display base made up to better photograph these models.

Also just got a large delivery in to fill out my German force so hopefully see some more progress soon. Really want to try my hand at some camo patterns so if it's successful I'll add it to my painting tutorial thread too.

And because naturally I'm always very professional, here's a shot with another project on the desk at the same time! An experimental German super weapon perhaps? Undiscovered until now!

As always comments and criticism greatly appreciated!

Cheers

Chris and Chris - great work you guys! Amazing work! I love the giant frog! I bet the CoC doesn't have one of those...yet!

Chris that is phenomenal!!!! So impressive! I am trying those contrast paints and the pin wash like you mentioned earlier, any tips would be great. My stuff sadly is not at your level by a far stretch... but I have plenty of minis to practice on...

Very nice models. Lots of contrast which makes them very interesting to look at. I like the way you see all the detail as well. What is the base colour on the Pz III? Looks like a Vallejo colour.
